Stuff like this makes me think Sony could have "won" this holiday season by just keeping the PS2 as the star. God of War, Rogue Galaxy, Guitar Hero 2, Okami, Final Fantasy 12 - many of the best games of the last year have been on the PS2. Had they really pushed the PS2 I think they would have cleaned up on holiday sales. Then they could have put out the PS3 next year and had an extra year to lower the costs.

Could not agree more. I know launching so long after the 360 was killing them though. At least in their minds. In mine, doesn't matter that they come out together ,and I would prefer they didn't.

But on this topic, I soooooooooooooooooooooo want GoW2 to come out. The first one and this one are the primary reasons why I will never chunk my PS2.
